In a website, apart from the using back-end languages, can i send html form value direct to my gmail?

Question

Html form,

Answer 1

no, you cannot...

to send form data directly to your email, you must either give a 'mailto' link to the 'action' attribute of your form (this will open a prefilled email client for the visitor wich will be still able to NOT send it) or rely to back-end service to send email with the form value ^^

Answer 2

Which means i need something like php?

Answer 3

yes: could be php, or any other languages (there are http framework for almost every languages)

Answer 4

Do you mean languages like react or angularJs can do it?

Answer 5

react and angular aren't languages but frameworks...

but angular on server side (and maybe react) can probably handle it... not sure if they have built-in for doing so, but that's possible ^^

Answer 6

There is this nodemailer package you can look for and later on search for articles on how to use it in react app or others.
